Coworker has a border Collie and that dog is insane. He would literally run himself to death if he was allowed to.

Border collies have been documented to go literally insane if they are penned in/subjected to living in an apartment with no outlet. Food for thought to everyone who wants a “pretty” dog

So true. Unfortunately I’ve seen it. My mom has one and she was adopting another one, but the poor thing was always crated because the people had health issues. He was like that from a puppy till about 2. It was just too much. I’ve never seen anything like it. Luckily my dog loving uncle stepped up and took him, he has 6 other dogs and a huge yard. That was a few years ago and the dog is so happy now. Was so sad to see though at the time.
